The patch titled
Mark VMSPLIT EMBEDDED
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
mark-vmsplit-embedded.patch
This patch was probably dropped from -mm because
it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or
into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into
its parent patch in the -mm tree.
From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxx>
Running abnormal VM splits causes weird problems - people can set non-standard
splits by accident, then lots of time gets wasted diagnosing it - see the long
"[stable] 2.6.16.6 breaks java... sort of" email thread.
So we need to make this option harder to set. Use CONFIG_EMBEDDED for this.
CONFIG_EMBEDDED isn't really the right thing to use, but there's nothing else
obvious and avoiding these problems is more important than Kconfig purity.
